coraWelcome!
I have created this space to discuss any/all things that fall under the brain neurodiverse umbrella: autism, ADHD, auhd, dyslexia, dyscalculia, dyspraxia, etc.
You can talk about anything you want related to neurodiversity here, as long as you don’t spam or harass anyone. Hate and bullying will not be tolerated.
If you have a special interest, please share with the rest of us. We would love to hear about it.
This is my first rodeo for managing a community, so I want to keep the rules list short (I'm a reddit refugee, I have ADHD and I have Autism - a long list of rules makes it harder to follow if you are a participant, and just obnoxious to enforce if you are an administrator/moderator):
1) Treat everyone with dignity and respect. Bad faith arguments will not be tolerated.
2) Assume all disagreements come from a place of good faith/a learning opportunity
3) No hate/bullying - Three Strike System (since this is a community for neurodiverse, and neurodiversity does have an impact on communication/social skills, I do not want to kick out anyone who says something offensive and it was a learning opportunity vs. "no, I intended my statement to come across that way & I stand by it" The latter falls under "bad faith" arguments)
These are focusing on the "bigger picture" and are open for discussion. They are here to help guide you on the rules and will be numbered in accordance to which the the rules they are corresponding with.
1.a) We are not interested in policing the language people use for themselves (person first or identity first). We ask that you respect the language others use to describe themselves (including pronouns).

4) If your post may be triggering to others (spiders, reptiles, violence, abuse, etc), please use a content warning and a cut tag to ensure others can make a decision about reading/seeing further based on where their headspace is.
